Memorial Day

Greetings, earthlings......
Happy Memorial Day to everyone out there. From those of us lucky enough to have gotten the day off to those of you who didn't.....it sucks to be you. But unfortunately our office has to make up the day by working all day Saturday. Now is that fair? No, but such is life.

Well, onto cheerier subjects, this weekend i was lucky enough to be able to go to this year's Shakespeare in the Park series. This year it was The Tempest. It was pretty good since the setting changed to a planet far, far away and once nighttime fell there were all kinds of lights and stuff. And yes, the integrity of the play was still there in case you fell the need to know. The weather cooperated too because it wasn't too hot since the show started at eight. It's been super hot recently so i hope next time we make it to the garden for the summer jazz concerts it won't be too bad. Maybe.

It's been awhile since my last posting but you know how it is, you always think, naw, i'll do it later and then a month later.....here i am again.

Spent mother's day down in the valley. Enough said because I don't want to be mean or anything. I'm just sorry that I won't be able to make it to David's graduation on Saturday because of the high gas prices. Well, actually we probably could make it but why make it harder on ourselves. I'lll just send him a present along with my con"grad"uations. Okay, so that was lame, but I'm just proud of him for not being another statistic in the sense of being just another Hispanic dropout. WAY TO GO!!! In your face...

On the 17th we went to a party to celebrate Marta's mother's 80th bday. It was alright, not bad. They had mariachis of course at the beginning but then the lights were dimmed and it was time to party. Yeah right.. Naw, it was funny when the Mariachis were in front of our area (since they go around the room) and the singer was singing to sylvia who made the mistake of going solo to this thing. They always target the single gal.
